Prove the following statement by contradiction.
If a and b are rational numbers, b ≠ 0, and r is an irrational number, then a + br is irrational.
Proof by contradiction: Select an appropriate statement to start the proof.
A. Suppose not. That is, suppose there exist irrational numbers a and b such that b ≠ 0, r is a rational number, and a + br is rational.
B. Suppose not. That is, suppose there exist rational numbers a and b such that b ≠ 0, r is an irrational number, and a + br is irrational.
C. Suppose not. That is, suppose there exist rational numbers a and b such that b ≠ 0, r is an irrational number, and a + br is rational.
D. Suppose not. That is, suppose there exist irrational numbers a and b such that b ≠ 0, r is an irrational number, and a + br is rational.
E. Suppose not. That is, suppose there exist rational numbers a and b such that b ≠ 0, r is a rational number, and a + br is irrational.
Then by definition of rational,
a = c/d, b = i/j , and a + br = m/n
where c, d, i, j, m, and n are___and____. Since b ≠ 0, we also have that i ≠ 0. By substitution,
c/d + i/j r = m/n
Solving this equation for r and representing the result as a single quotient in terms of c, d, i, j, m, and n gives that
r = c - a/b

Answer:

a) 0.0171 fluid ounces.

b) 0% probability that the average fill volume of 22 bags is below 5.95 ounces

c) The mean should be of 6.153 fluid ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Standard deviation of 0.08 fluid ounces.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.08[/tex]

(a)What is the standard deviation of the average fill volume of 22 bags?

This is s when n = 22. So

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]s = \frac{0.08}{\sqrt{22}}[/tex]

[tex]s = 0.0171[/tex]

(b)The mean fill volume of the machine is 6.16 ounces, what is the probability that the average fill volume of 22 bags is below 5.95 ounces?

We have that [tex]\mu = 6.16[/tex]. The probability is the p-value of Z when X = 5.95. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{5.95 - 6.16}{0.0171}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -12.3[/tex]

[tex]Z = -12.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.

0% probability that the average fill volume of 22 bags is below 5.95 ounces.

(c)What should the mean fill volume equal in order that the probability that the average of 22 bags is below 6.1 ounces is 0.001?

[tex]X = 6.1[/tex] should mean that Z has a p-value of 0.001, so Z = -3.09. Thus

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]-3.09 = \frac{6.1 - \mu}{0.0171}[/tex]

[tex]6.1 - \mu = -3.09*0.0171[/tex]

[tex]\mu = 6.153[/tex]

The mean should be of 6.153 fluid ounces.

Answer:

4√2 and 5+4√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x ad y

Smaller = y

Bigger = x

If a positive real number is 5 more than another, then;

x = 5 + y ... 1

When - 10 times the smaller is added to the square of the larger, the result is 57, then;

-10y + x² = 57 ...2

Substitute 1 into 2;

-10y + (5+y)² = 57

-10y + 25+10y+y² = 57  

y²+25 = 57

y² = 57 - 25

y² = 32

y = √32

y = 4√2

Since x = 5 + y

x = 5 + 4√2

Hence rhe numbers are 4√2 and 5+4√2

Answer:

So, to fill the tray completely , he needs 3 bags of sand.

Step-by-step explanation:

Tray dimensions,

length = 0.8 m

Width = 0.6 m

height = 0.1 m

Volume of one sand bag = 17000 cm^3

Let the volume of the tray is V.

V = length x idth x height

V = 0.8 x 0.6 x 0.1 = 0.048 m^3

Number of sand bags

[tex]n=\frac{0.048}{17000\times 10^{-6}}\\\\n = 2.82[/tex]

So, to fill the tray completely , he needs 3 bags of sand.

The values of variables, such as the height of the table can be found by writing equations of their relationships

The height of the table is 105 cm

The reason the above height value is correct is as follows;

Known parameters:

The diagram shows a table, a cat and a mice

Let x, represent the height of the table, let y represent the height of the cat, and let z represent the height of the mice

From the given diagram, we have;

Height of the table + Height of the cat - Height of the mice  = 120 cm

∴ x + y - z = 120...(1)

Height of the table + Height of the mice - Height of the cat   = 90 cm

∴ x + z - y = 90...(2)

Adding equation (1) to equation (2) gives;

x + y - z + (x + z - y) = 120 + 90 = 210

x + y - z + (x + z - y) = 210

However;

x + y - z + (x + z - y) = x + x + y - y - z + z = 2·x

∴ x + y - z + (x + z - y) = 2·x = 210

x = 210/2 = 105

Therefore;

The height of the table, x = 105 cm

Answer:

A dilation by a factor of three about Point T followed by a translation of two units downwards.

Step-by-step explanation:

When transforming functions, we will reflect/dilate the figure first and then translate it. This is directly from the order of operations.

Since we are trying to determine the transformation that was performed, we can try to map ΔS'T'U' onto ΔSTU. We can start by translating the figure and then determining any reflections/dilations.

First, we can translate ΔS'T'U' up two units to map T' onto T. This is represented by the black triangle in the image below. Let the black triangle be ΔS''T''U''. (T'' and T are the same point.)

Next, notice that from Point T'' to U'', we move nine units right and six units up.

From Point T to Point U, we move three units right and two units up.

Likewise, from Point T'' to S'', we move six units left and nine units up.

From Point T to Point S, we move two units left and three units up.

Therefore, to map ΔS''T''U'' onto ΔSTU, we dilate ΔS''T''U'' about Point T by a factor of 1/3.

Hence, by reversing the transformations, to acquire ΔS'T'U', we can see that we will dilate ΔSTU by a factor of three about Point T and then a perform a translation of two units downwards.

[tex]Probability = \frac{4}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

B1 = first bag

B2= second bag

B3 = third bag

Let A = ball drawn is red

Since, there are three bags.

Probability of choosing one bag=  P(B1) = P(B2) = P(B3) = 1/3.

From B1: Total balls = 10

3 red + 7 black balls.

Probability of drawing 1 red ball from it , P(A) = 3/10.

From B2: Total balls = 10

8 red + 2 black

Probability of drawing 1 red ball is, P(A) = 8/10

From B3 : Total Balls = 10

4 red + 6 black

Probability of drawing 1 red ball, P(A) = 4/10 .

To find Probability given that the ball drawn is red, that the ball is drawn from the third bag by Bayes' rule.

That is , P(B3|A)

                     [tex]=\frac{\frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{10}} { \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{3} \times\frac{8}{10} + \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{4}{10}}[/tex]

                    [tex]=\frac{4}{30} \times \frac{30}{15}\\\\=\frac{4}{15}[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that it is drawn from the third bag is 4/15.

Answer:

4/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution of conditional probability problem:

Given:

Bags (3R,7B), (8R,2B), (4R,6B)

Let

P(R,i) = probability of drawing a red AND from bag i

P(R, 1) = 3/10 * (1/3) = 3/30

P(R, 2) = 8/10 * (1/3) = 8/30

P(R, 3) = 4/10 * (1/3) = 4/30

Let

Let P(R) = probability of drawing a red from any bag

P(R) = sum P(R,i)  for i = 1 to 3   using the addition rule

= 3/30 + 8/30 + 4/30

= 15/30

= 1 / 2

Conditional Probability of drawing from the third bag GIVEN that it is a red

= P(3 | R)

= P(R, 3) / P(R)

= 4/30 / (1/2)

= 8/30

= 4 / 15

(Since all bags contain 10 balls, by intuition, 4 red from third / 15 total red = 4/15)

Answer:

  (x^(1/2))(x^(1/2)) = x^(1/2 +1/2) = x^1 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of exponents is ...

  (x^a)(x^b) = x^(a+b)

From which ...

  (x^a)(x^a) = x^(a+a) = x^(2a)

So, if we want two identical factors that have a product of x = x^1, then the exponents of those factors will be such that ...

  x^(2a) = x^1

  2a = 1

  a = 1/2

The square root is defined as one of two identical factors that have a product equal to the specified value. That is ...

  (√x)(√x) = x

Above, we have shown that ...

  (x^(1/2))(x^(1/2)) = x

so, we can conclude ...

  √x = x^(1/2)

_____

Additional comment

In like fashion, we can show that the n-th root of a number is the same as that number to the 1/n power. It's really a matter of definition. Since the square of x^(1/2) is x, we call x^(1/2) the square root. It is used commonly enough that it has its own symbol: √x.

Answer:

Squaring and square root are inverses, so one should "undo" the other. That is, squaring the square root of a number results in the number. Using the power of a power rule, you multiply the exponents. Since a number to the first power is itself, the product of the exponents must equal 1. This means that the power of the square root must be the reciprocal of 2, or one half.

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of three consecutive numbers is divisible by ​6

Let us say the numbers are x, x+1 , x+2

if x = 1,

Product of the three consecutive numbers,

(1)(2)(3)

=> 6, which is divisible by 6

if x = 2,

Product of the three consecutive numbers,

(2)(3)(4)

=> 24, which is divisible by 6

Similarly if we take any 3 consecutive numbers their product will be divisible by 6.
